- Patients must have received < 3 lines of prior therapy and have relapsed less than a year from their last platinum regimen; regimens that are used twice (for example carboplatin and paclitaxel) can be counted as one; if a regimen is changed during the course of treatment due to side effect profile or allergy, the course of therapy is counted as one regimen; (for example, if docetaxel is substituted for paclitaxel due to a reaction during the initial course of adjuvant therapy, this is considered one regimen)
